This episode is part of the upcoming online event called Behavior Connect.

Behavior Connect is all about moving beyond traditional behavior strategies to foster authentic connections with children.

In this episode, I am joined by Julia Kharlamenko, M.S. CCC-SLP TSSLD B.E as we discuss the principles of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and their application in speech therapy sessions.

Julia shares how observations, listening, and compassionate interactions help move away from compliance-based therapy, fostering meaningful connections and positive outcomes. Detailed insights into Dr. Marshall Rosenberg's NVC framework are provided, emphasizing the importance of empathy, self-regulation, and honest expression.

Julia also explains how these principles can enhance both professional and personal relationships through practical examples and goal-setting.
